Rose and Ana both sang with Joel. During the first set though, they each had an opportunity to play one of their own songs respectively, and it they were both pretty good.

The acoustics in M.H. are amazing, from what I remember. The last time I was there it was 1997 for Morrissey’s Maladjusted tour. He was swarmed onstage by 3 fans and thrown out into the alley with them by security. The look on his face while all this was going down was priceless.

Would’ve liked to see Sonic Youth there next month but I lagged and I don’t want an obstructed view. Hope they come back to play there again in the fall.

Yah, Massey Hall shows are expensive. We caught Joel over a year ago at the ‘Shoe when he played his ‘one album per show’ concert series. On the night we went he was joined by Gord Downey, Sarah Harmer and the guy from Big Wreck (Big Sugar?).

Did Rose Cousins open up for Joel, or did she just sing with him? Wish I could have gone.
